[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Booker-T:
Thanks for your reply but I found it a 2.3 based rom.

Actually, I think 2.3 is just to demanding for G1:(
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeenAndroidized:
Yes it is a 2.3.x base and it will keep going up. currently the ROM is at 6.4.2.

It is not demanding as far as I know. I am currently using the base 6.4 and getting ready to upgrade to 6.4.2 (for basic fixes).

But that is up to you.

Even with the 2.1 base I think it's still demanding.

Hi im newbie here.... have Samsung Galaxy Ace 2.3.4 rooted...How I can install games...???I have downloaded some games like Gangstar_Miami_Vindication and Assasin Creed...they have the .apk file...and a folder with the files of the game...where i must put them in the sd card???
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] wawan77:
if U have games of gameloft, put the folder in /sdcard/gameloft/games/(folder games).

ex: /sdcard/gameloft/games/asphalt5 (for ashpalt 5 game).
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] rarefied:
You have rooted phone but dont know installing games, interesting.

Anyway, you can install games, application 2 way.

1. You can install via kies.

2. You can copy ur games, application which means *.*apk extension to ur sd card, and go ur files, find ur copied stuffs and click it. Thats all.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] kesterpogz:
maybe his games are warez.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] consegregate:
How else can he get the apk files on the computer :P
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] sjansen2:
Umm... everything looks hard like everybody is saying.

I just use opera mini. Its a web app.

and then i download my games from the web and install them right on my phone.

umnet.com is ma favorite site ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] rarefied:
Not hard mate, installing something to phone; easiest work.

P.S: Sometimes application and games load ur phone with *.*zip or *.*rar extension. You must change the extension to *.*apk. E.X: thegame.zip > to > thegame.apk.

For a long time, my camcorder has lagged in every video with frameskips and freezes. It just freezes up for a few seconds, and when it comes back, the audio is out of sync! Does anyone know how to fix this? I've looked all around the forums and I can't find any solution. This essentially makes it so I can't record any video. I'm on MIUI 1.7.8 on the Incredible.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Gongadin:
I feel your pain. The same thing happens to me, and it doesn't matter what ROM I use, (and I've tried a ton) it freezes and then the audio goes out of sync. I'm almost at a total loss too, but I think I may try a faster SD card. I currently have a class 2, and I can get a class 6 on newegg for about $14. Might be worth a try. I don't remember having this issue on the stock firmware, but I also remember I was able to save to internal storage then, and also the audio quality during recordings was terrible on stock. The audio is MUCH better on newer roms. So, to me, it's either storing to emmc was faster then, or now the extra processing power for the better audio is causing that hiccup. The one of those 2 things I can control is the speed of the SD card, so there's my logic.

I would love to find an actual proven solution....

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roakes:
Hey all,

I've been flashing Villain ROMs on my SGS2 since I got it a couple of months back but today I have come to flash the latest and found that CWM Recovery can no longer browse to the External_SD folder, it's there and I can select but it just refreshes the directory listing and doesn't take me into it.

Never had this before so I'm a bit stumped? While flashing (using the internal memory) I've seen messages in CWM mentioning that it can't read EXT-SD, seems its lost sight of it?

The SD works just fine once the phone is running though, can browse and copy to it quite happily.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Russ

Maybe i missed it but i have never seen CWM with external SD card .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roakes:
Strange, it's certainly been working on mine, force of habit I always copy my ROMs to the external SD (as my Desire etc. didn't have internal) and I carried on doing so on my SGS2
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prodygee:
External sd is not accessible in cwm on my phone
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toonarme:
Same here, it's driving me mental... CWM shows it in the directory list but if I try to select it it just refreshes the list.

Edit : External_SD is actually a folder on the internal storage. I found this by connecting to my laptop and looking at Drive G, which is the internal. I found the External_SD folder and made a new folder called 'test' inside it. I then booted into CWM, browsed to the folder listing and opened External_SD and there was my 'test' folder... I have no idea how you access the external from CWM.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
I have double checked no external sd card on CWM for me .

So exactly where was the setting on yours .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roakes:
You're really starting to make me doubt my sanity now, due to your comments I am now down to 90% sure that I used to save things to the external sd and flash from there, I mean I've flashed every VillainROM for the SGS2 going and yesterday was the first day I had an issue.

Could it be a radio or kernal issue?

I was coming from XXKG3 and Ninphetamine 2.0.2. Maybe the previous to those allowed it but doesn't since their release?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roakes:
When you say that do you mean you've never seen a folder called external_sd when browsing or it just didn't go anywhere?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rotorsk8r:
I'm in the same boat. I used to copy all new roms and .apk to my external and flash them through cwm but since using Ninphetamine I can choose external sd but it seems to be empty. Not a big deal just created a new folder on internal memory but it would be nice to be able to back up the external again.

Same here. CWM stopped reading my extermal SD at some point. I used to copy the ROM zip file there and flash it from there. Suddenly I cannot do it anymore??

Hi guys, Having just upgraded to a Eee pad transformer I would like to sell my vega.

Where do you guys think is the best place to sell it? I have a dock with it also.

Would I need to send it back to stock if selling to CEX etc?

Thanks.

If these Q's are frowned on by the Mods then I apologise.
[Vega General] maltloaf:
A bit off topic but I'm just wondering as someone who has had both, what are the advantages of the transformer over the Vega?

Cheers,

Malty
[Vega General] MarkyG82:
As I had the vega on vegacombe, the software side of things is very similar. you can probably guess that the asus is smoother as it uses a final build rather than beta. The screen is also far better than the vega.

The main reason for changing is the fact that my netbook is on the way out and as I use it as my main device I thought why not combine the two. The mouse on the asus is great. Works really well with honeycombe.

The best way to describe it is like having a VW compared to a Kia. Just slightly better in every aspect.

The vega was there as a test piece for me and it served its purpose.

Does that make sense?
[Wildfire General] rocky7x:
Hello,

Is there a way to enable smileys on the default CM7 keyboard (instead of the enter key). For example in the Gtalk app there is a smiley option, but I would like to have it by default everywhere (facebook, messages etc.) - any way to do this?

Cheers...
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
Wasn't it always like that? Have you enabled another keyboard? I had searched high and low for a keyboard which removed the smiley key and brought back the Enter Key for the Messaging App, and only about 2-3 weeks back I found it.
[Wildfire General] rocky7x:
Well, since I've flashed CM7 I haven't installed any other keyboard. I also haven't fiddled with any keyboard settings. So I'm quite puzzled that I have the smiley button only in Gtalk and messages (sorry I was wrong in my first post, there IS a smiley button in messages). However, I would like to have it also in Gmail and pretty much any other app - for example Facebook or its alternative Friendcaster.

Any idea how to enable it?
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
Not without any 3rd party app (Also, I have no idea which 3rd party keyboard does this). The default Gingerbread keyboard is context sensitive, i.e. - for a fixed set of apps, it will show the smiley key, and, for another fixed set of apps, it will show the enter key.

Editing should be possible if you don't wish to go for the Enter key, but, are all your GMail E-Mails only 1 line messages? (Because, till date, all I have seen, you can either get the Smiley key OR the enter key, not both) I find it difficult to live without it in the messaging app itself, leave along Gmail and browser.

Anyway, to state again, editing the keyboard should be possible, but it needs technical know-how, and I can't help you on that.
[Wildfire General] rocky7x:
Well you have a point there, that writing a mail without enter would be quite a problem ;-) Anyway, I guess I'll have to stick with writing smileys the long way (using "." long press) ;-)

Thanks for clarifying the issue.

Cheers...
[Wildfire General] ErwinP:
One way to go around that is by making the smiley (or smiley menu) appear afther a long press on the enter button. There is a keyboard on the market ("keyboard from android 2.3") which does that, in the gui of (as the name says) the android 2.3 keyboard.

BT Mini Keyboard

There is a Chinese made mini bluetooth keyboard, the size of a smartphone, but much thinner and only weighs around 10 gr and is usually prized at around $10. You will need a driver (plenty available for free on Market) to use it, but once paired and connected it does work. Any of the usual gadget outlets have this item. It is very useful for writing mails and SMS, but I wouldn't recommend it for writing school reports. It is basically a "two-thumbs" device.

bootanimation for viewpad7

Since there is nothing listed here so far, ill just post my stuff here.

I've created a custom bootanimation.zip based on the dr who title sequence and tweaked it so i would run well on my viewpad.

Images are ripped from youtube video, so i can only take credit for converting and resizing them. to reduce size and speed up loading time i've reduced the images to 400x240 and stretched them out using desc.txt in the zip.

Install the bootanimation.zip using adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local/

I've also included a replacement boot sound to go with the animation. My viewpad 7 runs DearDeer.ogg from /system/media/audio/notifications/DearDeer.ogg as it's bootup sound. The only way I've found to change that is replace the file with something else of the same title.
[Viewsonic ViewPad 7 & Variants] flez1966:
Wow loove the boot animation!

Whats the procedure for creating it etc, I tried to edit the standard one off mine, I edit a few frames with ''stolen from ''+my address and re-saved the frames, rezipped, copied back into the phone, and it just skips my edited frames...

Whats the specific file format and what did you save the frames with/as ?
[Viewsonic ViewPad 7 & Variants] Amalgation:
Not exactly sure what you mean, but when rezipping, have you set the compression to store ? if you compress the images in the zip they wont load.

My procedure:

1. downloaded youtube video from dr who title sequence in mp4 format.

2. Used Quicktime Pro to cut and export the video to a BMP image sequence.

3. Used Irfanview to resize the pictures to 400x240 and 256 colours to reduce size.

4. used Irfanview to convert the BMP to PNG

5. used pngout to further compress the PNG files for smallest file size

6. Downloaded a custom bootanimation.zip and replaced the png files inside.

7. Edited desc.txt in the bootanimation.zip for correct screensize
[Viewsonic ViewPad 7 & Variants] Letitride:
+1 nice & good start, going to try it out once DW get home as it's hers now to use.

Anyone got customized & business-like ringtones (Mp3 format?) to share - non.copyrighted ones, please - the stock ones included sounded subdued and not distinctive - not that we've planning to use it as an oversized smartphone.
